A genetic tendency toward certain forms of higher blood pressure and cholesterol is linked to a potential increased risk of Alzheimer’s disease, a new study finds. The exact cause of Alzheimer’s is ...

Scientists have uncovered a hidden layer of genetic regulation that helps explain why individuals with the same blood type can differ so dramatically at the molecular level.
